We have a 2004 Odyssey that we've had on a lease for the past 4 years. Our lease is up w/i the next month and of course we could purchase it or we could just turn it in and get something else. I have gone back and forth the past 4 months and have changed my mind, and I had finally come to peace with just keeping it.
Unfortunately, a new lease is not an option for us because we moved and we can't stay within the mile allotment.
My original thought was to KEEP it, then sell it because it's worth more than the payoff. BUt with gas prices, I'm afraid the vans and SUV's will start being hard to unload.
Soooooo.....going against all my previous opinions that I DON'T want a car, I'm turning a new leaf. We just have one kid, MAYBE another one down the road but maybe not. My main holdups with the car are just being able to haul larger things, and hauling more than four people.....
For you '08 Accord owners, tell me what you think! Are you happy with your decision? Is it roomy enough for you (we're all TALL!)? Trunk space adequate? What model do you have (EX, LX, etc.)? If you have LX, are the amenities nice enough for you? If you downsized from a van to a car, how has that transition been? Can you get three in the back row, or is 2 the max?
Thanks all!!!!!
